The throwing ol Buoh n Block of goods on the market was enough to attract wide attention , ivnd they consequently declined olliclous olTors of Borvico by some alleged adver tising solicitors. Among them was a young man who churned to represent the Council Bluffs department of an Omaha paper.

Ono column of this paper was devoted to an arraignment of the Catholic church and the democratic candidates , who wcro chareod with being In a combination with it , while the rest consisted of vigorous denunciations of Candidate Schoontgou. Ho was charged with having been a party to a school board ght which hnd nearly destroyed the city school system , forcing himself on the board of election Judges In the Fifth ward , favoring corporeal punishment and extravagant ox- pendltuios of public funds , using profane language In tbo board meetings and in the presence of the school teachers , and Using the district funds whllo his putlncr , Mr. Grouinvrg , was tren5iinsr of the board.

The building is ono of the many line pressed brick structures that have gone up in the last ycnr , and is very pleasant and nttrnctivo both out side and in , but the olllccs have just re ceived a week's attention from J.B.Long and his corps of decorators. Tlio result justillcH the almost extravagant assertion of Mr. Kornoy , for the naturally fine rooms have boon given a decoration that makes thorn artistically pcrtoct. Mr. Long , in his designs , haa shown an originality that is pleasing , and saw that , they were executed with faultless skill. The decorating tn.ttnrinls used are ingrain papers , a now process of plastic work and carved mouldings. Perfect harmony prevails in ouch of the apartments in coloring and designs , and going from ono room to another has something of the clTcct upon a rollnod visitor as a visit to an art galtory. "Tho work stamps Mr. Long as an original decorator , " remarked a gentleman who was admiring the work , "and is the strongest proof that the people of Coun cil 13iulls hereafter who want line work done will bo obliged to consult him.

ILLINOIS IN T1IE EAHLY DAYS. of Mnciilu nnd tlio llin-1 ith Shield * . From nn "Open Lot lor" on "The , Illi nois of Lincoln's J'imo , " by Sophie Bletisoo Uorriok , in the Century for March , wo quote us follows : "There wns in these early days n curious char- aclor who presided nt the bar ; his nitino 1 have forgotten , but 1 remember my father's eharnetorixlng him , in Lord Chesterfield's phrase , us 'dullness blund- orlngs upon vivneitios. In a cortuln cnso in which this person acted its omni- sol for the plnintilT , a M note hud been stolon. Tlio fact was proved beyond question. The point nl issue dually was ono of grand or polit larcony. Tlio counsel for the defendant m tile tlio in- goniotis pfoa that the bill was nn Indiana , bill , nnd worth $ ! . ! ) ) and therefore was below the limit of petit larceny , $5 being that limit. Thu juiy Beotnudquite impressed by tlio argument , wlion the couiibol for plaintilT rose , and in the peculiar drawl and nasal intonation I'lmrnotoristio of his speech said : 'Gentleman of the jury , if any ono of you was to take that In- tlitiny $ o bill to market , there's not u butcher there that would not bo glad to take it at pa-n-tir. If you was to go to any of the stores on the square here they'd bo willing and moro'n willing to take il at pa-a-ar ; but this mean , con founded biioak couldn't afford to stonl it at pa-a-ar. ' The jury rcndorod a verdict of 'guilty of grand larceny.1 "After General Shields had chal lenged Mr. Lincoln , nnd before the pre liminaries had been arranged , Mr. Lin coln came into my father's olllco. lie said : 'I don't like this duel busi ness. It is very foolish , but 1 can't show the white feather , and 1 don't know what I ought to do. ' My father said : 'Lincoln , you are tlio challenged party and can cheese the weapons. Choose broadswords , and I'll bo qualified Shields will never fight you. ' Mr. Lin coln was very much amused with the notion , and instructed his second to unmo broadswords as the weapons. When the seconds mot and broadswords were proposed , General Shield's second demurred. Ho said , 'Barbarous weapons for the nineteenth century. ' 'Yes , ' said Mr. Lincoln's second , 'they are barbar ous , so is dueling , for that matter. It is just us well to have the whole thing of a piece , ' or words to that olTect When the time for the duel came , my grandfather , father , Dr. Morrymun and some others wont to the scene of action. Inthose days stage coaches were the only public conveyances overland , and the pirtyhad to spend at least ono night on the way. The men , as was not uncommon in those days , found very limited accommoda tions , so four , I think , hud to sleep in a bed. My father said that during the night ho found himsnlf in very narrow quarters as to the shoulders , while below - low there seemed ample room to expa tiate. In the morning ho discovered that his right-hand bedfellow , a perfect stranger , had lost his loftleg. Dr. Mor- ryman called out in the night to my grandfather , ' \Vnko up , Blcdsoo ; wuko up. ' Grandpa said , 'Dr. Morrymun , nro you a doctor and don't know that when a man snores it is a , sign that ho is asleep , not that lie is dying ? ' 'Yes , I know , ' said the doctor. 'When most men snore , I know it is a sign that they are asleep ; but when you snore it is a sigrr that nobody else in the houso- but yourself is asleep. ' "Tho news of the proposed duel was noised abroad , and acrowd had collected on the Illinois side of the river , await ing the return ; it soemcd to this merry party that the termination of this threatening alTair would bo unbearably flat if they just came homo and an nounced an apology as the 'upshot in the end. ' So they put a log of wood pros trate in the bottom of the canoe , covered it ever with General Shields' clonk , or something equally effective , and then clustered around the supposed victim of the fight , ono fanning , another support ing , etc. , till the crowd gathered on the opposite oank was worked up to a great pitch of excitement and sympathy. When the loir was lifted out the dueling party had cllecUmlly turned the laugh from themselves. " Ainlcus Cnrni' . Chicacro Tribune : "Tho charge against you , Mi1. Kiljordan , ' ' said the police magistrate , looking at" him sternly ever his spectacles , "is that of boisterous , profane swearing on the public streets of this city. Have you anything to say ? " "Nothing , your honor , " replied the prisoner. "I'm guilty. I had just paid my gas bill. " The magistrate pushed his spectacles up to the top of his bond and loaned over the desk in front of him. "Mr. Kiljordan , " ho said , impulsively , ' . 'permit mo to grasp you by the hand ! Officer , discharge the prisoner and call the next case. " All Appeal to IIU Consclrnco , Chicago Tribune : "As a personal ftivor , " said the theatrical manngor , "I would like to Imvo you give us as favorable a notice as you conscientiously can. " "It will afford mo great pleasure to dose so , " said the dramatic critic. And being a conscientious young man ho gave the performance the most ter rific roasting the next morning it had had since it started out on the road. Ills NOHI.
